The United States issued an ultimatum to Baghdad on Sept. 14, demanding that all militias linked to Iran be disarmed by Sept. 30 or risk a freeze on dollar‑linked financial transfers. The warning, reported by Kurdistan24, ties the deadline to U.S. economic pressure as the last U.S. troops prepare to leave Iraq.
The move follows a broader U.S. strategy to curb militia influence ahead of the final drawdown of forces. Reuters questions why Iraq, a U.S. ally, cannot meet the disarmament demand, pointing to entrenched militia networks.
The pipeline incident, which halted oil flow, underscored how militia firepower can threaten critical infrastructure. Shafaq News frames the situation as a squeeze on Baghdad, while the deadline threatens to suspend dollar‑denominated aid.
